Heinz reinvented their ketchup packets in a new more convenient one.

Very, very creative I must say that will get little kids begging there parents to buy it.
Or mabey the odd childish adult will fall fort it...

I wonder how many quantum physics scientists and aeronautical engineers they hired to design that.

Probably a lot, considering it took them how many years to put the damn ketchup bottle lid on the bottom of the bottle?

100 Million dollars in ketchup packet design research lol.

I still buy the little glass bottles, because ketchup tastes funny when it's stored in plastic.

I love how we humans spend so much freaking money on trivial things like this, or a pen that will write in space. We rock.

Although, sometimes I kind of wish we'd actually use Rube Goldberg contraptions. Like if we wanted a better way to open a ketchup packet, we'd topple some dominoes which light a bunsen burner, which boils a chemical solution, which fills a balloon which trips a spring loaded thingy, which spins around, which hits buttons on a keyboard, which frightens a hamster into his wheel, which turns a generator, which articulates a robot hand, which tickles a hen which then lays an egg which falls down a hatch and trips another spring loaded thingy, which spins a knife, which slowly cuts a piece of string which is holding up a 50 lbs weight, which falls just so on the end of a packet of ketchup, which spurts it perfectly onto your hot dog.
